Poll of the Day > This was the 25 y/o BLONDE Girl who leaked Documents of RUSSIA HACKING!!!

(+) Yeah! (+)

25 y/o Reality Leigh Winner from Georgia, was arrested for releasing classified documents to the media related to the leaks on the Russian Election Hacking Scandal!!

The government charged the intelligence contractor with removing classified material from a government facility and said "Winner is a contractor with Pluribus International Corporation against to a US Government Agency facility in Georgia. She has been employed at the facility since on or about February 13 and has held Top Secret clearance during that time. Winner printed and improperly classified intelligence reporting which contained classified national defense information from an intelligence community agency, and unlawfully retained it. A Few days later, she unlawfully transmitted by mail the intelligence reporting to an online news outlet. FBI as arrested and charged the woman they say leaked a Top Secret document"

Billie Winner, her mother was shocked to learn about her daughter's arrested and not sure why..she said "I don't know what they're alleging. I don't know what she might have sent it to. DOJ were very vague. They said she mishandled and released documents that she shouldn't have but we have no idea what it pertained to or who"

She said she never discussed her work and didn't know much about her job as a government contractor. They said she's passionate about her views and things like that but has never been active in politics.

Her tweets revealed her frustration with the Trump administration and retweeted a joke about government leaks. In response to Trump's tweet about immigrations from the 7 Muslim-majority countries, she wrote "SO DANGEROUS. have you ever met an iranian?" She also posted #RESISTANCE.

She was an active supporter of Bernie Sanders and was upset when he lost against Hillary Clinton..but she was also distraught when Trump won and wrote to Bernie "i listened to you daily, and your podcast kept me sane. What the heck #Betrayed #Disillusioned"

She also retweeted Sanders statement calling the president racist and xenophobic

The documents released showed top secret NSA document revealing efforts by the Russian Military intelligence to conduct spear phishing cyber attack on a company and local voter registration by committing cyber espionage operations against a named US Company in August 2016.

The intercept story states that the documents raises the possibility that Russian hackers breached some elements of the voting system bringing the investigation of election interference..

Trump has rallied against leaks and asked congress to focus not on the Russian hacks but on the "unmasking" of individuals in leaked documents

Should Reality go to Prison?

So no.

25 y/o Reality Leigh Winner from Georgia,

What? That's... what? Who the fuck would have a name like... what? And who would hire... seriously, what the fuck?

Probably. This doesn't seem like whistleblowing, just something she did to fulfill a personal vendetta against the president. It's a far cry from the actions of Chelsea Manning who exposed heinous actions of the military and Edward Snowden who outed US spying on US citizens.

Seems like a planted story, especially considering that we were repeatedly assured before and after that it couldn't happen, plus the recount turned up extra votes in Hillary's favor rather than Trump's which was attributed to a... I can't remember the error, but it was like 1 extra vote per district which isn't huge.

If there's a conspiracy, she's likely at least a pawn in it.

If Russia was trying to hack our elections, that seems like something we'd want to know; but I assume the NSA had reasons for wanting to keep that evidence secret. What she revealed doesn't seem as urgent for us to know as, say, evidence that Russia actually caused Trump to win.

Seems to fit the definition of whistle blowing, actually.

Hang her for high treason. But on a more serious note.

So if it is proven that Russia to fix the election, but Trump is innocent (not knowing that Russia did such a thing) what happens.

I am not saying Trump is innocent, but everyone is saying Trump was behind the Russian hack, but waht would they do if he really had no knowledge of then doing it until after an investigation.

Wait... do people still think Russia wasn't involved in the US election? I'm guessing they also think 9/11 was an inside job...

They weren't trying to hack our elections. There's been zero evidence to even a suspicion of that. The claim was that they were trying to influence our election by "hacking" the DNC and leaking those documents which, again, we don't have a lot of proof of beyond the country of origin and that's assuming that the attack wasn't routed through Russia. In this day and age, it's very easy to fake all kinds of details and it would be natural to put the blame on Russia although it's also natural to suspect either Russian citizens or the Russian government.

Except not in the least. The motivations aren't there and the information isn't particularly benefiting the public. By your definition, ANY leaked information would be whistleblowing.

Again, the claim isn't that Russia tried to "fix" the election, it was that they interfered in the election.

Nothing. The only way that Trump *might* be affected would be if Russia had actually hacked the voting system -- something for which we have no reason to even suspect and no proof during the recount -- but even then the result would probably stand.

You have it reversed, given that 9/11 being an inside job is a conspiracy theory and Russia hacking the DNC is a conspiracy theory; which isn't to say that both theories are equally absurd, but that both are theories regarding conspiracy.

Whistleblowing is leaking information that reveals any form of misconduct.

And clearly no misconduct was to be had here.

Yep, she broke the law and should go down for it. However she was doing something that needed to be done so I support her and respect that like Snowden etc. she did something that she knew was right but could end badly for her.

I worry more that she was caught so quickly-you'd hope an intelligence contractor would be a little more savvy...

On a lighter note, I think she has nice abs in this pic. Do you agree?
